    Best Godzilla movie ever with probably the most unique airplane used in a movie a

    Godzilla Minus One was a good movie, much better than the stupid stuff from Hollywood, e.g. the film with Matthew Broderick, (theme song with Jimmy Page and Puff Daddy).

    Jacket identification with art?

    Anyone know a good image-based search format? (not Google lens). This is a non-ID'd jacket, probably Colvinex, with 5th AF painted on the left shoulder. There are 2 circular stitch patterns located on the right shoulder where patches likely once were. I was hoping to ID the jacket, at least to...

    Thoughts on this auction of summer flight jacket?

(a guess ... but my .02) but the jacket seemed suspect because of the patch with panda -- looked pretty fresh and bright to me as was the art on the rear panel Anyone think the jacket is 100 percent real ... or maybe not ...?

    Somebody got a great deal

    Somebody got a great deal

    Silver surfer sold somebody a Dubow (and it was a nice one) in another VLJ thread for roughly triple the price as the price this Dubow (pretty nice in its own right) sold for at auction. And that's with a quick and dirty $300+ for commission, taxes and shipping.

    Somebody got a great deal

    At auction a really nice pair of A2 jackets went for $750. Granted, that price does not include the 28 percent commission, taxes and shipping. https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/157866233_lot-of-2-named-us-wwii-type-a-2-leather-flight-jacket
